A review by thinwhiteduke
Tales from Ovid: 24 Passages from the Metamorphoses by Ted Hughes, Ovid

challenging inspiring mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

This is the combination of two of the best things one can get in life: mythology and evocritical poetry. The only reason this is not a full 5 stars is because I wish Hughes had translated more poems.
